NaI(Tl) The use of NaI(Tl) crystals in sealed units is counterbalanced by the fact that they have the greatest light output among all the scintillators and a convenient emission range matching the maximum efficiency of photomultipliers with bialkali photocatodes. Moreover, large-size NaI(Tl) crystals can be produced at low cost.
Undoped CsI
The decay time is ~10 ns. Undoped CsI can be used for experiments in medium and high-energy physics.
CsI(Tl) Since the maximum light emission is at 550 nm, it can be associated with Si photodiodes, thus reducing significantly the size of the de-tection system, without HV power supply, and without sensitivity to magnetic fields.

CsI(CO3) CsI(CO3) has a light output of 60% compared to NaI(Tl). Decay time ranges from 1.4 to 3.4 ms depending on the dopant concentra-tion. These characteristics allow CsI(CO3) to be used in combination with other scintillators in phoswich detectors. CsI(CO3) has an after-glow of 0.05% after 5 ms.
CsI(Na)
CsI(Na) is a good alternative to NaI(Tl) in many standard applications : it has a high light output (85% of that of NaI(Tl)), about the same light emission wavelength and hygro-scopy is substantially lower.
6LiF(Eu)
The absorption of thermal neutrons in Li-based crystals is based on the following reac-tion: 6Li+n → 3He+H+Q 6Li is submitted to special export regulations.

Oxide-based scintillators
Physical properties
Other types of scintillators
Our Oxide-based Scintillator production includes : Cadmium Tungstate CdWO4 (CWO), Gadolinium Silicate Gd2SiO5:Ce (GSO), Bismuth Germanate Bi4Ge3O12 (BGO), Lead Tungstate PbWO4 (PWO).
CWO Cadmium Tungstate CdWO4 (CWO), due to its low intrinsic background and afterglow together with reasonably high light yield, is one of the most promising materials for Spectrometry and Computed Tomography.
GSO
Gadolinium Silicate (GSO) is a fast scintillator. It is a very promising candidate for gamma-ray spectrometry below 1 MeV and for Computed Tomography. Also, it exhib-its good temperature stability.
BGO
Bismuth Germanate (BGO) is one of the most widely used oxide scintillators, espe-cially for the detection of high energy gamma-rays. It exhibits good energy resolution in the range of 0.5 to 20 MeV and relatively short decay time.
PWO
Lead tungstate PbWO4 (PWO) is a new ‘heavy’ and ‘fast’ scintillator mainly dedicated for High Energy Physics. It has the shortest radiation length and Moliere radius, satis-factory light yield and high radiation stability.

Molecular crystals
Physical properties
Organic molecular crystals
Due to their low Atomic Number, organic materials are well suited for the detection of charged particles as back-scattering effects are minimized. The high concentration of hydrogen atoms permits the detection of fast neutrons. Scintillators are non-hygroscopic and provide fast responses.
Anthracene (C14H10)
Anthracene is mainly used for the detection of beta radiation both in counting and spectroscopy modes. It presents a strong light output anisotropy.
Stilbene(C14H12)
Mainly used for fast neutron detection and spectroscopy. Pulse rise-time analysis techniques can be applied to discriminate between neutrons and gamma radiation background or between alpha and beta particles.
Doped p-terphenyl (C18H14)
Doped p-terphenyl can be used for the detection and spectroscopy of alpha and beta particles and neutrons. It exhibits a short decay time (τ ≈ 3-4 ns) and a temperature-independent scintillation yield within a wide temperature range (- 80°C +150°C).

Plastic Scintillators
Physical properties
Plastic scintillators are based on luminophors (luminescent additives) embedded in transparent polymer blocks (polystyrene (PST)). Characteristics of plastic scintillation materials such as light output wavelength, scintillation yield, transparency, decay time, radiation resistance can easily be modified by changing dopant compositions inside the PST block.
Polystyrene based scintillator
Scintillators based on polystyrene are used to detect alpha, beta, gamma radiation and fast neutrons. Most pastic scintillators are prepared by bulk thermal polymeriza-tion in aluminium (size up to 3.5 m) or glass cast and by pressure molding technique.
The following products are available :
• fast plastic scintillation material: decay time from 0.9 to 0.5 ns, light output 55 % of
anthracene ; • plastic scintillation material having the slow decay component: decay time from 300
to 400 ns, light output 45 % of anthracene; • radiation hard plastics (UPS-92RH ) • scintillation material for dosimetry, tissue equivalent. • scintillation polystyrene containing soluted organic compounds of heavy elements
(Pb -12%, Sn -10%).
The table on the next page displays the technical characteristics of some of our plastic materials. Please ask for special specifications you are looking for.
